US Masters Tournament Betting Odds
All major bookmakers will have odds available for US Masters Tournament outright betting markets well ahead of time. These can offer great value with a few things to consider when selecting players to back.
Firstly, defending the title at the US Masters is extremely rare. Only three players have managed to retain their title, Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods. Woods was the last player to go back to back with wins in 2001 and 2002.
The layout at Augusta suits golfers that can draw (curve) the ball from right to left. Many of the fairways have a natural dogleg from right to left so right-handed golfers than can draw the ball have an advantage.
Big hitters also have an advantage at Augusta with many US Masters winners scoring well on the par fives.

US Masters Tournament History
The US Masters Tournament was started by amateur champion Bobby Jones and investment banker Clifford Roberts. Jones co-designed Augusta National Golf Club with course architect Alister MacKenzie.
The tournament was first played in 1934 and has a number of traditions. Since 1949, a green jacket has been awarded to the champio, who must return it one year after his victory to be stored with other champions' jackets.
The Champions Dinner is held on the Tuesday before each tournament and is open only to past champions and board members of the Augusta National Golf Club.
Jack Nicklaus has the most Masters wins with six between 1963 and 1986. South Africa's Gary Player was the first non-American player to win the tournament in 1961.
The Augusta National golf course has been modified throughout the years with greens reshaped and re-designed, bunkers added, water hazards extended and hundreds of trees planted.
